so i just downloaded and installed wow, i repaired the game once as i read somewhere on the main page.
when i start up the game i get the intro screen, after i log on, the game keeps telling me i need an update patch...
i can't use the normal blizz updater so can anyone tell me what i might be doing wrong?

Cheers in advance,

Pointless

i dl'd the version obtainable from this site (that's the one saying it needs an update :s), thought that might be the right version, if not is there any possibility to link me the patch-site 'cause i've been looking all over and can't seem to find it XD

you need our launcher https://www.wow-freakz.com/wow/wow_launcher_freakz.exe
copy it in wow folder and start wow with it.

not to be annoying or anything, but i also installed the launcher, re'installed it now, and it's still saying 'you need a new patch' reinstalled your version of WoW 3 times now, reinstalled the launcher 3 times aswell, get the same thing over and over again, also, i don't get to see the launcher, it automatically goes to the in-game startup... not sure what i'm supposed to do now -.-

This happens when you try to login using an email address. Use the username you signed up and it should work.

1. Whats your current game version when you enter in-game(right bottom corner)
2. Don't forget to setup the realmlist

version 4.0.6 (it's the left corner btw =p) and the realmlist was already set to wow.freakz.ro, i got rid of all the other text (update list etc...)
still didn't change anything, i'll reinstall it again, check the realmlist again, i'll try entering one of the other realms to see if that changes anything...
and ofc i'll keep you guys posted, cheers for the quick replies btw.
hope it works out this time... been playing allod in the meantime but it just isn't the same, in short it's pointless questing without a mainstory =p

Edit:

Fixed it, was the config file that was still giving me trouble XD
